#1569 Sooty Buckskin Dun Varnish Leopard Appaloosa

Postby Khans » Sun Feb 22, 2015 3:01 pm

Based off a horse near where I ride, I hope you like him ^^

(note: I will be going back and fixing those hideous dapples)

Username: Sheperd
Name: Valence
Gender: stallion
Halter color: black
Personality: Valence is an unsure stallion. He is rather skittish and gets spooked easily, so strangers must approach him with caution. However, once you gain his trust, Valence (sometimes called "Val") is a sweetheart. On the inside, he is an affectionate lovebug. Though on the outside, he is anxious and a worry-wart. So unfortunately, Valence is almost always on edge.
First Ride: Valence's first ride was full of sudden stops and uncertainty. The entire process of tacking him was even difficult. Every time someone got near him, he would flatten his ears and avoided the hands of the trainers. Eventually, the trainers had to grab someone Valence trusted. They slowly and carefully tacked him, but Valence was terrified.

Finally, one of the men volunteered to ride Valence. Valence was petrified, frozen in terror of the humans. Never had he been in a saddle, the the bit in his mouth made him uncomfortable. He nearly bolted, but he reluctantly remained stationary. The man that had mounted him gave him a slight squeeze, and that set Valence off. He bolted, cutting corners quickly. Around the pasture he galloped, and then finally his head was pulled back. Valence flattened his ears, being forced to stop. The man on him slowly eased his taut grip on the reigns. Valence's heart was racing. The man began to gently pat Valence's neck, but that made him even more uncomfortable. Again, the man gave Valence a slight squeeze. Valence didn't move, but he was unsure of what the rider was doing. The man squeezed again, but Valence didn't move. One more squeeze. Finally, Valence took a couple steps forward, and he listened with uncertainty as the man on his back spoke softly. Was this a good thing? The rider slowly pulled back the reigns, making Valence stop. Valence stopped. The man gave Valence a gently squeeze again, and Valence started walking forward. Around they went, and Valence slowly began to learn from his mistakes.

      Username: summer.
      Name: natural disasters // hjerlo
      Gender: stallion
      Halter color: american flag {stars and stripes}
      Personality: loving // sophisticated // charming // reserved
      First Ride: he wasn't prepared to be ridden. I was six, he was only a year. we started at a slow pace but then the trouble maker, name trouble, nipped hjerlo's heel, causing him to take off into an aggressive gallop but I was completely inexperienced and had no clue what I was doing, so I grabbed onto his back and started slipping off to his left side. I was clinging to his hindquarters for dear life, and then he slowed down to a trot. it was a super bumpy trot, and my jeans began to slowly droop. lets just say my mother got a kick out of my jeans down to my ankles and my bambi underwear out there for the world. I fell off after that. but...we're both much better at riding now. he's used for teaching young children to ride, but the sheepdogs are locked up until he's finished.

Username: Freedom!
Name: Riddle Me This
Gender: Mare
Halter color: Black Leather
Personality: Riddle can be a tricky mare to handle and likes things to be her way, even if its something simple. She doesn't have much patience with beginners but shows a more affectionate side once she has warmed up to you. This mare dislikes group rides unless she is out infront and leading the way and even then she has a tendency to show off so it is often better to avoid the situation. Riddle can be destructive, especially when left in her stall even overnight.
First Ride: Riddle's first ride was an... Experience. It took a few weeks before they were finally able to get her to accept a bridle and saddle, getting someone on her back was another thing entirely. It was soon noted that while the mare wasn't well behaved, it got worst when she was in an arena, so the decision was made to take her out into a grassy area, of course taking another horse to chase after her with should she escape again. Sure enough the mare behaved better to start with, as long as she was always infront with a decent amount of space, although when they came to a steep, muddy hill it was soon shown that this mare did not like being told she couldn't do something, and the instant she was tried to be redirected away from it was the time she took off, yanking on the reins and splatting mud in her path, by the time she had managed to get to the top looking successful, yet also looking like her and the rider just been painted brown.
